Netflix plans to release around 1,000 original programs by the end of 2018, which includes TV series and movies.

According to Variety, Netflix's chief content officer, Ted Sarandos, said that the streaming provider is spending 85% of its $8 billion in development money on original programming. There are still 470 programs scheduled to be released between now and the end of the year.

Netflix statistics are always tricky since the company isn't known for sharing their viewership stats with the public. Back in April, Sarandos made the claim that 13 Reasons Why was probably the most watched show in 2017. Sarandos went on to say that 90% of Netflix subscribers regularly watch their original programs.
